INTERNAL EQUIPMENT
Electrical Power Outlets
The auxiliary 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlets
can provide power for in-cab accessories de-
signed for use with the standard “cigar
lighter” plug. The 12 Volt power outlets and
USB Port (Charge Only) have a cap attached
to the outlet indicating “12V DC,” together
with either a key symbol, battery symbol, or
USB symbol.
A key symbol indicates that the key must be
in the ON/RUN or ACC positions for the outlet
to provide power. The battery symbol indi-
cates that the outlet is connected to the
battery, and can provide power at all times. NOTE:
To ensure proper operation, a Mopar knob
and element must be used.
CAUTION!
• Do not exceed the maximum power of
160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watts (13 Amps) power rating is
exceeded, the fuse protecting the sys-
tem will need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for accessory
plugs only. Do not insert any other object
in the power outlets as this will damage
the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper
use of the power outlet can cause dam-
age not covered by your New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

CYBERSECURITY
Your vehicle may be a connected vehicle and
may be equipped with both wired and wire-
less networks. These networks allow your ve-
hicle to send and receive information. This
information allows systems and features in
your vehicle to function properly.
Your vehicle may be equipped with certain
security features to reduce the risk of unau-
thorized and unlawful access to vehicle sys-
tems and wireless communications. Vehicle
software technology continues to evolve over
time and FCA US LLC, working with its sup-
pliers, evaluates and takes appropriate steps
as needed. Similar to a computer or other
devices, your vehicle may require software
updates to improve the usability and perfor-
mance of your systems or to reduce the po-
tential risk of unauthorized and unlawful ac-
cess to your vehicle systems.
The risk of unauthorized and unlawful access
to your vehicle systems may still exist, even if
the most recent version of vehicle software
(such as Uconnect software) is installed.
WARNING!
• It is not possible to know or to predict allof the possible outcomes if your vehi-
cle’s systems are breached. It may be
possible that vehicle systems, including
safety related systems, could be im-
paired or a loss of vehicle control could
occur that may result in an accident
involving serious injury or death.
• ONLY insert media (e.g., USB, SD card,
or CD) into your vehicle if it came from a
trusted source. Media of unknown origin
could possibly contain malicious soft-
ware, and if installed in your vehicle, it
may increase the possibility for vehicle
systems to be breached.
• As always, if you experience unusual
vehicle behavior, take your vehicle to
your nearest authorized dealer immedi-
ately.
NOTE:
• FCA US LLC or your dealer may contact you directly regarding software updates. • To help further improve vehicle security and
minimize the potential risk of a security
breach, vehicle owners should: – Routinely check
www.driveuconnect.com/
software-update to learn about
available Uconnect software updates.
– Only connect and use trusted media devices (e.g. personal mobile phones,
USBs, CDs).
Privacy of any wireless and wired communi-
cations cannot be assured. Third parties may
unlawfully intercept information and private
communications without your consent. For
further information, refer to “Data Collection
& Privacy” in “Uconnect + SiriusXM Guard-
ian” in your Uconnect Owner's Manual
Supplement and “Onboard Diagnostic Sys-
tem (OBD II) Cybersecurity” in “Getting To
Know Your Instrument Panel” in your Owner’s
Manual at www.mopar.com/en-us/care/
owners-manual.html (U.S Residents) or
www.owners.mopar.ca (Canadian Residents)
for further information.

Android Auto
Android Auto is a feature of your Uconnect
system, and your Android 5.0 Lollipop, or
higher, powered smartphone with a data plan,
that allows you to project your smartphone
and a number of its apps onto the touch-
screen radio display. Android Auto automati-
cally brings you useful information, and orga-
nizes it into simple cards that appear just
when they are needed. Android Auto can be
used with Google's best-in-class speech tech-
nology, the steering wheel controls, the knobs
and buttons on your radio faceplate, and the
radio display’s touchscreen to control many
of your apps. To use Android Auto follow the
following procedure:
1. Download the Android Auto app from theGoogle Play store on your Android-
powered smartphone. 2. Connect your Android powered smart-
phone to one of the media USB ports in
your vehicle. If the Android Auto app was
not downloaded, the first time you plug
your device in, the app will begin to
download.
NOTE:
Be sure to use the factory-provided USB
cable that came with your phone, as after-
market cables may not work. 3. Once the device is connected, the system
will display the Android Auto home
screen. Android Auto should automati-
cally launch, but if it does not launch
automatically, refer to the Uconnect Own-
er’s Manual Supplement for the procedure
to enable the feature “AutoShow.” You
can also launch it by pressing Android
Auto located in the “Apps” menu. If you
use Android Auto frequently you can move
the app to the menu bar at the bottom of
the touchscreen. Press the “Apps” button
and locate the Android Auto app; then
press and drag the selected App to replace
an existing shortcut in the main menu bar.
Once Android Auto is up and running on your
Uconnect radio, the following features can be
utilized using your smartphone’s data plan:
• Google Maps for navigation
• Google Play Music, Spotify, iHeart Radio, etc. for music
• Handsfree Calling, and Texting for commu- nication
• Hundred of compatible apps
